Today I am blogging about politics amiss the current Presidential Debates.
I have been thinking about the term Indiscriminate Racism. Let me define...
Indiscriminate Racism - Means you have no idea that you are being racist. You make statements falsely and are not careful to check for facts.
Obama has been in office for four years and he has been subjected to defamation and racist jokes. I am well aware that racism will never die; however, when it comes down to our leader and stopping his efforts to assist our country because you feel he is inferior based on his color. This is a cycle! It started long before I was born and will never finish even long after I am gone. My daughter will deal with this as well as her children. I pose the following questions:
What happens if you consider the color brown unattractive and dirty? What will change your mind? If you mind is changed about the color brown will you wear it?
I give you this: I hate Seafood; however, I was convinced by others that I should try it. Does it taste good? Yes..certain kinds of seafood taste good....but will I eat...NO!!
Remember how slavery started?? Brown skin was easily identifiable!! The consensus is that brown skin equals inferiority...How do you make others believe after several hundred years that this isn't true?
What is our propensity to place each other and ourselves in groups rather than see others and ourselves as individuals???
